My personal hypothesis is that everybody was half-asleep through about a third of the episodes of TNG.

It certainly reaches some high peaks, but the series average isn't as entertaining as everybody remembers it.

You don't excuse or fix LaTeX formatting.

Whatever way LaTeX decides to format your document is The Right Way™, and the person complaining about it is wrong.

Hum... My guess is if we could make houses out of money, they would be much cheaper.

I'm so terrified about it that I check dozens of times before running it. So, no.

At the beginning, there were wires and dials that people would plug on the computer.

Just to point out, but the last time we had a scandal about a plane that kills people, it's safety record was about the same as riding a motorcycle in city transit (AKA, one of the most dangerous things people actually do).

Just because the average is very low, it doesn't mean whatever problem people are pointing isn't an issue.
